So guys i ended using my 1" SF spacer and seem to be fine but will see...

Thanks! i had 12mm sleeves for the upper mount

I got a rake!! even with a 1" spacer on OME HD lol

Just Lifted

FINALLY!!! put the truck back together, also changed the steering rack bushing since it was off, also had front and back sway bar links/bushing on hand for awhile. Did those too. NRC9447 Thought about getting longer Bilsteins, but for now will use the pair i bought a year ago from a fellow Npora local member on here. 5100 (185509) Will coat the wheel wells later on Orangy Spacer didn't come in on time, didn't bother using one but added the 1" SF Creations spacer Front 2928 OME HD Coils on KYB Struts All OEM Nissan Hardware Even with the 1" spacer in the front, still a bit of a rake but will wait for it to settle and then also do the alignment BEFORE AFTER :););) Me and a fellow techs 4Runner

... Dont worry i will LOL, i think my Build Page has more than enough pictures :) ha

Fronze any modifications with the eyelet mounts on this part number or was it direct fit, thanks

u beat me too it lol If u ever need parts number i also use infintipartsdeal.com it basically breaks down all components and part numbers

Ya totally hear ya...Ive known this buddy for like 20 years never have in my years and tons of cars I've owned have i used his option to use his shop til now. Well especially not this extensive. Ya it makes a huuuuuuuuuuge difference not having heavily rusted parts. Hey man at least u have all that, space and tools. I'm a home mechanic with cheaper brand tools, the other benefit is being here i'm surrounded with snap on tools if i need it and advice/help if needed. Good luck on the suspension overhaul guess PB blaster wont work, heat it is ha

Update, so for the past week and half. the truck been slowly worked on, sitting on the hoist. Removing parts when i can come in, been getting help from the shop, Nissan Seals/Gaskets been a waiting game as we go along and see things that are needed Week ago, i installed these new belts lol off they come again to remove upper oil pan Under Carriage was pretty clean in turn made the removal of parts much easier Rear Main Seal This crush washer above the RMS was probably the longest wait Cleaning the upper oil pan and lower Box of hardware for the lift top to bottom. All Nissan parts except rear bump stop TO BE CONTINUE......

So Update, the truck is on the hoist. Transmission removed, will do seals soon (Pics to come)... and YES FINALLY i paid for the front and rear suspension hardware. Every piece from top to bottom from Nissan, but the only part that i didn't buy yet are the bump stops. Are u kidding me almost $250 after tax CDN for both sides and that's with my dealership discount lol none to less lift finally coming soon, now have to decide on what length spacers to use up front hmm Storing at shop

by the way if you plan on getting the rear bump stop at Nissan its $$$ for both sides Ekkkk

Yes i got 9447 but Im not even sure since i've been told otherwise that a 1" spacer upfront may be too much. I'm trying to level it as much as possible time will tell may get the 0.5" spacer instead

Btw Around 4.5-5L on my 03 Qx4 with jus a drain and refill

Think the 2608 is for a r51...Check for OME at 4Wheelparts.ca in Langley. That's where i got my front HD Coils (2928). And if u wanna save money source out everything at different place such as even amazon for one and Rock Auto.com for another for the KYB Struts As for the rear springs lot of us get the Land Rover Defender 90 for the lift. Cheaper options

One last thing before i put the engine back together was i did the drive belts debated about the radiator as well.... Coolant flush right after. I went to Nissan the same day and got a estimate(discount) from Nissan from top to bottom for the hardware for the front and rear lift. RMS next!

and have the engine running, while

Hey guys thanks for the heads up, as i recall doin research from a year ago . I was trying to achieve having the lift the most possible leveled kit and was told the 1" on the front would be best. Hmmm. maybe i researched wrong.

Thank You! i actually thread locked them as normal and reinstalled after

So this past week has been quite eventful ...Started working on the all Gaskets Seals Step 1 Remove Air Intake not having the bulky OEM Air box etc ahhh makes life so much more easier Throttle Body Before & After Hopefully no one kicks the bolts/screws over, bc that's the order they have to go back LOL Intake manifold collectors YUCK! Before & After Cleaning The Infamous Screws Valve Covers Off! For a truck that drove good, i'm glad i did them. It seems like the dealer tried to hide stuff but using silicone on the Spark Plug Seals Ekkk. VC arrived Beck/Arnley, open them up and what do you know they are OEM NISSAN Score! $530 CDN all in with shipping from Rock auto to Vancouver Outside box Inside box Did Both the thermostat and water valve, drained the coolant since everything was apart next. i didn't remove the fuel line/injectors, did it somewhat blind in a tight spot but still managed. Decided to not go any further down, still have the Rear main seals etc to do. Cleaned the Intake manifold from above and used air pressure to shoot it back up and dry. New Valve Covers back on..have to go to Nissan to get those blow by breather hoses since they were hard as a rock As for now just waiting for our long weekend to be over so i can grab couple more hoses for the lower manifold and finish also probably slap on new drive belts too while I'm at it, since i have them already............future plans is to basically installs these finally one day LOL Kick back and enjoy to be contnued

That's what I said too but I'm not sure... Thanks for the reply.

So i'm in the process of doing all the gaskets, valve covers etc at my buddies mechanic shop right now...was about to thread lock the screws but has anyone ever removed them completely? and remove the butterfly to leave it fully open. My buddies seems to think i should. Debating

Thank u and if you got the time you should! Get one step ahead for further problems right . Post it once u decided to do it all. Cheers buddy

Yeah! i know, parts been sitting at home since last year when i had my gold pathfinder. Will have it done asap and last. Right now its too pretty to be a off roader is what ppls are saying LOL umm. As we speak right now tho doing a all the of gaskets etc. Also replacing the Valve Covers. Rear main seals!
